Update: Settle Down and listen to No Doubt’s comeback single (video)

If Gwen Stefani has her very own Picture of Dorian Gray, it couldn't look any worse than No Doubt's "Settle Down" record art. Still, the song itself sounds awesome. Check it out below.Photo: Reuters/Handout

At 42, Gwen Stefani looks like she hasn’t aged a day since the release of Tragic Kingdom, and the No Doubt sound is just as magically and inexplicably preserved, it seems. “Settle Down,” the band’s new single is here — the first summery taste of the veteran pop-punks’ next album, Push and Shove.

It’s been 11 years since the Grammy winners released an album, which is enough to make the return of the Return of Saturn hit-makers one of the biggest music stories of the summer. Push and Shove, their follow-up to 2001’s Rock Steady, is due for a September 25 release — nearly a year after its first anticipated due date. But “Settle Down” is storming into the world, with trumpets — and, eventually, air-horns blaring. A video for the track is scheduled to premiere tonight on E! at 8 p.m., and going off a spate of behind-the-scenes webisodes released in the last few days, director Sophie Muller (No Doubt, “Don’t Speak”) has Stefani, Tony Kanal, Adrian Young and Tom Dumont making their pop comebacks as big-rig drivers. We’ll add that video to this story after its debut, but until then, listen to “Settle Down” below. (Update: It’s here! Watch the video below.) The digital single’s on sale now via No Doubt’s website. Somewhere in Orange County, the band must be hiding their very own Picture of Dorian Gray, and it’s probably as fugly as that “Settle Down” single sleeve.
